The Triplets My Ex Never Knew About novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Daddy, Kick Noelle Lockwood Out

Without thinking, Laura Jennings said, "Christian, Noelle put so much effort into this. How could it possibly taste bad..."

"If Grandma likes it so much, she can drink it herself," Zachery pouted.

"Grandma, I suggest you stop talking. If you say one more word, I’ll be tempted to ask Daddy to get a DNA test with you. I want to see if you’re his biological mother or Noelle Lockwood’s."

"A moment ago, you forced me to apologize, and now you’re trying to force me to say this tastes good?"

Laura Jennings awkwardly shut her mouth. "That’s not what I meant, Christian, but Noelle’s intentions were good..."

Zachery couldn’t be bothered to listen. He looked at Noelle Lockwood. "What are you standing around for? How dare you serve me something this disgusting? Go remake it."

Noelle Lockwood was so furious she nearly ground her teeth to dust.

’What is wrong with this little bastard today! He used to eat whatever I gave him, but now he’s suddenly being picky!’

She put on a wronged expression, her face full of sorrow, and looked at Nathaniel Sloan with tear-filled eyes. "Nathaniel..."

Nathaniel Sloan didn’t even spare her a glance. "Since Christian doesn’t like it, go remake it."

No matter how unwilling she was, Noelle Lockwood could only return to the kitchen.

Estelle Lockwood watched from the side with great interest.

A little over ten minutes later, Noelle Lockwood came back with a second bowl of soup. "Christian, try this one..."

"BLECH, BLECH, BLECH! This is disgusting! Are you trying to kill me with sweetness?"

Then came the third bowl.

"It’s scalding hot! And why isn’t there any sugar?"

The fourth bowl.

"This doesn’t taste like pear at all. It’s awful!"

The fifth bowl.

"Aunt Noelle, why don’t you try it yourself? Are you deliberately messing with me just because I’m a kid?"

Noelle Lockwood was about to lose her mind with rage.

’To stay at Imperial Crest and make a good impression on Nathaniel, I actually made this little bastard five bowls of pear soup, and he’s still not satisfied!’

Laura Jennings couldn’t stand it anymore. "Nathaniel..."

"It’s alright, Auntie. It’s my fault. I’ll just go and remake it again."

With tears in her eyes, Noelle Lockwood shook her head helplessly, subtly conveying a message to everyone: It’s not that my soup is bad; it’s that Christian is deliberately making things difficult for me.

This display made Laura Jennings’s heart ache for her even more. "Nathaniel, you can’t let Christian go on like this. Noelle is his mother! You were just like this when you were little, and you weren’t close to me when you grew up. I can’t let that tragedy repeat itself..."

A flash of impatience crossed Nathaniel Sloan’s brow. "Mom!"

Zachery pouted. ’What the heck? I’m just like my scumbag dad was as a kid?’

’No, no, no, I’m just pretending. I don’t want to be like my scumbag dad. If I’m too much like him, I’ll grow up to be a scumbag man!’

Just then, Noelle Lockwood came out of the kitchen again.

She sighed at Laura Jennings. "It’s alright. As long as Christian is happy, I’m willing to remake it as many times as it takes."

Noelle Lockwood had it all planned out. As long as Christian continued to act unreasonably, she could win everyone’s sympathy. Then, staying at Imperial Crest wouldn’t be difficult.

However...
